I was gonna tell you to upgrade to marathons before I continued reading the post. That's bad luck indeed (remnant in tyre from earlier flat?) as those Schwalbes are pretty bomber. The only thing to beat mine so far was a large nail.

I think it may be time to replace the tires. The rear tire is just about shot, and while there is still quite a bit of tread on the front, it has a couple of cuts in it that do not go all the way through, but could be an issue.

True story: Waiting for the bus a young woman with luggage sees my bike and starts chatting about how awesome she thinks bike people are. After we get on the bus she sits right next to me and asks me how to fix various things on her bike and finally blurts out "I really wish I had a boyfriend who knows how to fix bikes!" as she puts her hand on my knee.

Eheheh, I have a portuguese version of such a "meticulous and careful" "pit crew, I.T. department and personal barista" hubby bike man and I can definitely atest its usefulness for any (cycling) girl! :-)
